Subject: fsdax: unshare: zero destination if srcmap is HOLE or UNWRITTEN
Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2023 11:11:09 +0000
unshare copies data from source to destination. But if the source is
HOLE or UNWRITTEN extents, we should zero the destination, otherwise
the HOLE or UNWRITTEN part will be user-visible old data of the new
allocated extent.
Found by running generic/649 while mounting with -o dax=always on pmem.
